[Verse 1]
Third time is a charm she wears
A reminder of a broken heart
This gem with a burden bears
That he was careless and he went too far
It took a long time
To build the walls high
And it's a lonely place to hide
But at night there's a whispered prayer
As her hope burns bright
[Chorus]
Dear Adelaide
No need to be afraid
Don't let the shiny things take you both away
Dear Adelaide
You know you're not too late
You need the light you bring
Don't you fade away
[Verse 2]
Keepsake keeps you holding on
Are you ever gonna break the chain?
Let go
Let the rising dawn
Melt the misery of yesterday
Crying eyes dry
And you'll be alright
You'll find a lovely place to shine
Right there with a glowing heart
You're a spark set fire
[Chorus]
Dear Adelaide
No need to be afraid
Don't let the shiny things take you both away
Dear Adelaide
You know you're not too late
You need the light you bring
Don't you fade away
[Bridge]
Let go
And say goodbye
[Chorus]
Dear Adelaide
No need to be afraid
Don't let the shiny things take you both away
Dear Adelaide
You know you're not too late
You need the light you bring
Don't you fade away
